CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones is hearing that the Detroit Lions could make a change at offensive coordinator, and he believes it's possible head coach Dan Campbell could look to the staff of a division rival for a replacement.

This article was originally published on www.si.com/nfl/lions/onsi as We're Good: Detroit Lions 2026 Mock Draft Simulation 1.0 . With the Detroit Lions season basically over, it is time to turn our attention to fixing the major issues that prevented the team from earning a spot in the playoffs.

The Detroit Lions were officially eliminated from playoff contention in Week 17 with their 23-10 loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Christmas Day.

After soaring to the NFC’s top playoff seed last season, the Detroit Lions won't be returning to the postseason this year, and they could end up at the bottom of the NFC North. The Lions (8-8) were bounced from playoff contention Thursday with a 23-10 loss at Minnesota.

It was a dreadful performance from Dan Campbell's squad, with Detroit committing six turnovers – yes, six turnovers for the first time since 2015 – and averaging a measly 3.61 yards per play. It marked the Lions’ sixth-worst offensive efficiency in a game since 2010 (and their very worst efficiency in a contest since 2020).

With their playoff lives on the line, the Detroit Lions produced an absolute dud, turning the ball over six times, forcing zero turnovers and falling to the Minnesota Vikings 23-10. That makes it a Merry Christmas for the Green Bay Packers, who clinch a playoff berth with Detroit's loss.

The Detroit Lions offense was a huge disaster against the Minnesota Vikings, earning some of their worst grades of the year.

Of note, center Graham Glasgow (knee) was upgraded from limited to full participation in the estimated practice report for the walkthrough.
